25th DNV Nordic Maritime Universities Workshop - Book of Abstracts

The DNV Nordic Maritime Universities Workshop is organized as a collaboration between DNV and universities in the Nordic region with a maritime related education or research line. The workshop covers all research topics related to naval architecture, maritime engineering and maritime transport, including safety, energy efficiency and environmental performance, environmental pressures, new technologies and digitalization. The 25th Nordic Maritime Universities Workshop was held on 30-31 January 2025 at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Lyngby Campus. The workshop has been organized and hosted by the Maritime Group at the Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering (DTU Construct). In total we received 77 abstracts from 7 countries. This includes 23 abstracts from Denmark, 23 from Sweden, 16 from Norway, 10 from Germany, 3 from Finland, 1 from The Netherlands, and 1 from Poland. The presentation of the abstracts and the talks is carried out over two days of the workshop and in 10 sessions, distributed over 7 topics:

• Maritime Safety & Risk Reduction (17 talks)
• Structures & Ship Design (8 talks)
• Numerical Methods & Marine Hydrodynamics (14 talks)
• Ship Operations & Navigation (14 talks)
• Autonomous Shipping & Digitalization (8 talks)
• Alternative Marine Fuels (8 talks)
• Wind Assisted & Alternative Propulsion (8 talks)

This year a special issue has been initiated in International Shipbuilding Progress to commemorate the 25th Nordic Maritime Universities Workshop. All abstract presenters have been invited to submit a full paper, to be considered for publication in this journal after a peer-review process. This compendium includes the workshop program, the session details and the 77 abstracts arranged in alphabetical order.
